Venice, lime paint, colour Pink
€ 10,95
For all lovers of handmade paint, discover Autentico Venice lime paint. Lime paint is not only anti-allergic and anti-bacterial but also gives surprising effects on walls and furniture. Painting with Venice is fun: let your creativity run wild. Lime paint dates back to ancient times. Michelangelo painted the impressive ceiling of the Sistine Chapel in Rome. It took him four years (1508-1512), lying on his back and painting with lime paint (on wet lime plaster). Lime paint hardens by reacting with CO2 in the air. This process is called carbonation, during which the lime paint hardens, acquires its final colour and adheres to the ground. Michelangelo actually ‘baked’ the paint. The absorption of CO2 helps improve indoor air quality, making lime paint one of the most sustainable paints. In addition, lime paint creates amazing textures. It is also full of depth and colour nuances. Painting with Autentico Venice lime paint is fun and very rewarding.

Suggestions for using Autentico Venice lime paint
Ideal for: You can paint walls and furniture with Autentico Venice lime paint. It is important to follow the guidelines for preparation and application.
Preparation and application: Mix the product well before use. The base coat should be clean, dry and stable. Remove dust, grease or other impurities. We recommend our Autentico Omniclean. If you paint on plaster, it must be fully cured and dry. Make sure the surface is suitable for the carbonation process to do its job. Always apply a coat of Autentico Primer. This prevents uneven suction. Once the primer is dry, apply two coats of Venice Lime Paint. The lime paint should have the consistency of liquid yoghurt. If you find the lime paint too thick, add 10-15% water. Work with a wide brush, wet on wet. Try to avoid short brush strokes or abrupt stops. This will be visible due to the carbonation process. You can work in any pattern, as long as you can work wet in wet.
Coverage One litre covers about 10-12 m2, depending on the surface it is applied to and its porosity.
Drying time: After 30 minutes, it should feel dry, but leave at least 4 hours between coats. Drying time may vary depending on environmental conditions.
Recommendations Autentico products should not be applied in high humidity, below 10ºC or above 30ºC. Venice lime paint is not suitable for outdoor use.
